Mahler: The Complete Symphonies

18 Aug 2017
Barcode: 0190295869175
Composer: Gustav Mahler
Other participants: Berliner Philharmoniker, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra
“For Mahler,” Sir Simon Rattle has said, "the symphony is where you can tell the most important truths.” The composer’s works have been crucial to his career – indeed, it was the epic Symphony No. 2 that first inspired him to become a musician. Spanning nearly two decades, these recordings of the complete symphonies, including Deryck Cooke’s completion of No. 10, were made with the two ensembles most closely identified with Rattle’s name: the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and the Berliner Philharmoniker.
